After being added to the Chinese military listing, DJI has countered by using the U.S. Department of Defense, saying that the claims are false
The U.S. authorities look to be on a mission that involves placing Chinese entities on a list that views these companies as a national security risk. Popular drone maker DJI has landed on the list and is now being categorized as a Chinese military company. The manufacturer of unmanned aerial vehicles has not taken the action from the government too kindly, as it has bounced back by suing the U.S. Department of Defense for wrongly placing it on the list.A U.S. District Judge was asked by DJI to remove its name from the Pentagon list of Chinese military companies
More than half of U.S. commercial drones are sold by DJI, and it even put out a blog post saying that the company conducts zero collection of data that would be sent to the Chinese military and that operators have to opt-in to share this data with the drone maker.
